"The hotel is lovely, my room was completely quiet (a treasure in NY, no hallway or street noise), and everyone working here is super helpful and friendly."

"Beautiful hotel. Decor was incredible and the room was perfect. The staff was accommodating and friendly. I would go back here in a heart beat. Absolute gem!"

"We came to this beautiful hotel for a staycation to celebrate our anniversary—and let’s just say, us New Yorkers can’t let this gem be just for tourists. What a dream! The hotel’s design alone is stunning—vibrant, bold, and a must for anyone who appreciates great interiors. We loved starting our day with a champagne brunch next door at Cafe Carmellini, then strolling back to unwind in our incredibly comfortable room. The attention to detail and level of service were truly unmatched. We were greeted with a welcome drink upon arrival, and since we were celebrating our anniversary, the team went above and beyond to make the entire weekend feel special."

"I was sitting in my doctor's office, reading magazines and I picked iup a copy of Travel and Leisure which contained this year's gold list. They had the Fifth Avenue Hotel as the # 1 hotel in NY. I have ben going to NYC for decades, staying at great hotels-like the Lowell etc. I had never heard of The Fifth Avenue Hotel. so, being curious I booked it. Boy was Travel and Leisure right. The Fifth Avenue Hotel is far and away the best hotel I have stayed at in NYC. It is a jewel box. It interior will take your breath away. Every inch is covered with extremely colorful and vivid wall paper or wall hangings. You feel like you are an Indian Maharaja's palace. The furnitures conkntues in the same vein. Its rooms and hallways are also equally iconic. After arriving in your room, a butler, will greet you with a complimentary cocktail. The service here , I think, there have been so many ( I am 74 and have an inveterate traveler and have probably stayed in several hundred 5 star hotels) this is the bes service I have ever experienced. For example they have a shuttle car, a BMW 7 series that is available to shuttle you around Manhattan. They have a Michelin starred restaurant , and an expansive comfortable lounge where believe or not drinks and bar snacks are reasonably priced. One complaint is that the lower priced are small, ours only had one chair for example. The hotel of course is expensive. But I always travel the an AMEX platinum card which yikes a lot of benefits=free breakfast, early which in, a $125 room credit etc. But this is Manhattan and everything is expensive. If you think the room rates are too high, at least stop by for a drink. This hotel is a jewel, like nothing you have ever seen before."

"Beautiful hotel with AMAZING service!! Every member of their team (valet, front desk, concierge, butler, room service, bartenders...everyone) truly cared about our experience! Beds are so comfy and luxurious! Baths are well appointed with wonderful products, Dyson hairdryer, luxurious towels & robes. In-room glass bottled water, soft drinks & snacks are included. Amazing room service menu with exceptionally quick delivery. This hotel does luxury very well!"
